Pumpkin Heads

As soon as I started assembling my Pumpkin Patch set from the Holiday Mini catalog I thought of these cute little pumpkin heads. This set is more versatile than you might think. You could use the pumpkin shapes (ovals and a circle) to make balloons, Easter eggs, eyes on a face, flower petals, Christmas ornaments and I'm sure you can think of more. You could stamp sentiments on them, punch them out, and layer them too. So, when you look at this stamp set don't just think of Halloween, there are many uses for these stamps! Just a note...see that black circle in the middle of the striped ribbon? That's one of our large chocolate brown brads! Yep, I just dabbed the brad into my Basic Black Craft pad and used my heat tool to dry it. Pretty cool huh?? So, think of our large brads and having them in any of our 48 beautiful Stampin' Up! colors!! One more thing...I created the jagged edge using our Straight Scallop punch. Just punch once then shift your cardstock and punch again over the already punched scallops!
Have a wonderful day!!

A New Toy...

Happy Tuesday!!
So sorry I've been away so long. Things got a little busy around here the last few weeks with school starting. I'll bet you're wondering what my new toy is huh?!?? Well, it's My Digital Studio!! Ok, it's a new program from Stampin' Up! called My Digital Studio!! This incredible new program will be available October 1st and is designed for those of you that love to scrapbook digitally, create cards digitally, edit photos digitally, create home decor digitally and so on. Whatever your heart desires can be created digitally!!! It's absolutely AMAZING!! Ok, so I'm guessing you want to see some digital samples huh? Ok, here they are...
This first one is a Christmas card I created in about oh...5 minutes!! Yep, 5 minutes. Here's the cool thing. If I don't want to print this card out I can actually make this card with all of my physical supplies. YES, I can stamp Dasher, cut out a circle, cut some DSP, add a sentiment and some cute star brads with some grosgrain ribbon to create a handmade card!! So, if you're not into digital cards or scrapbooking... what about creating layouts for your scrapbooks and cards??? HOW AMAZING IS THAT??!!Here's my first scrapbook page...this one took me about 10 minutes. Ok a little longer than the card but that's because it's 8 1/2 x 11!! I needed to add more elements and seriously...the thing that took me the longest was choosing which font I wanted for my "First Day of School 2009" title!! This program works automatically with ALL the fonts you have on your computer so the choice is endless!! When you download a font from the internet, it's automatically available in your My Digital Studio!!
So, you wanna get your own copy of My Digital Studio?? Yeah, I thought you might... :0) Ok, beginning October 1st, just click on over to my SU! website and click Shop Now! Then order your copy and have fun creating exactly what you want!! Of course, I'll be here to help you every step of the way!
